We absolutely loved everything about the Barge Inn. A lovely place at a beautiful location. The golf cart was definitely a huge help since we spent a lot of time at the beach and we stayed as a family of 7. The owners are very attentive and always strive to make your stay the best possible. We loved the porch and the overall feel of the house, everything was very clean. The Internet was fast and the kitchen is well equipped! I even baked a birthday cake there ! 10/10 recommend

My wife and I along with and her siter spent a few days at this quiet home on Kentucky Lake. The westerly view of the lake from the screened in porch makes for some great sunsets. The house was super clean. The kitchen was well-stocked with cookware and utensils. Check-in and check-out were easy. Not that we needed anything, but Elroy was available if anything came up.It's a bit remote, so we found ourselves taking day trips into LBL and the surrounding area and coming back late afternoon and staying put after that. This will be our go-to place when we're back in the area.

We have spent many vacations all over Kentucky lake and Lake Barkly and the view from this house far exceeds them all. No pics can do it Justice. Nice home with a screened in porch. The property owners, Vince and Pat are awesome. We will be returning without a doubt.

This property is wonderful. It is very clean and the view of Kentucky Lake is beautiful! We enjoyed sitting on the screened porch and watching the water traffic. We even saw a barge go by and the eagles flew right in front of the cottage. The hosts are very nice and even had a loaf of homemade bread waiting on us. I can’t say enough good things about this rental. I would highly recommend that you stay here!!!

The Barge Inn was amazing! It was extremely clean and had everything we needed. The views of the lake were spectacular and better than the photos show. We had such a relaxing time and enjoyed our stay. There were several good restaurants nearby and lots to do around Land Between the Lakes. We had so much fun fishing and kayaking on the lake as well. Our hosts were so kind and helpful! They had homemade banana bread waiting for us which was such a nice treat! We are so glad we chose to stay at the Barge Inn!
